Pali Word Grammar from Pali Myanmar Dictionary

dīghanakha：dīghanakha（pu） ဒီဃနခ（ပု） [dīgha+nakha] [ဒီဃ+နခ]

Buddhist Dictionary of Pali Proper Names by G P Malalasekera

Dīghanakha：A Paribbājaka，nephew （sister’s son） of Sāriputta．

He visited the Buddha at Sūkarakhatalena and the Buddha preached to him the Dīghanakha Sutta，at the end of which he became a sotāpanna．

In the sutta he is addressed as Aggivessana （M.i.497f； ThagA.ii.95； DhA.i.79）.

He was originally an Annihilationist （MA.ii.477）．Perhaps he is the heretic brahmin，nephew of Sāriputta，who was admonished by Moggallāna because he expressed great repugnance at the sight of Kassapa．Thag.1108ff； ThagA.ii.180.
